It is dark here still. Morning waits somewhere over the far horizon.
Beaumont the Sheepadoodle and I have just come back from a walk in the dark, beneath a city-dimmed sky of stars twinkling in a still-night sky.
I give him his treat and he paddles back into the bedroom, climbs up on the bed and takes over my spot beside my husband.
I make my morning latte. Sit down at my desk. Stile Antico plays softly in the background. I open my computer and am greeted by morning rising on the east coast.
We are all connected.
The beauty of your sunrise awakens me to the possibility of what is to come here soon, on the eastern slopes of the Canadian Rockies. Gives me hope. A sense of peace. Feelings of gratitude stir and I awaken.
Thank you.

I sang with Stile Antico in Devon, UK…. Dartington Summer School organised every year during 5 weeks all kinds of musical and artistic workshops. When we met them, they were still very, very young, more or less a one-family-band. Their stratosperic rise was followed by my with great interest. We have so much in common! (not only our love for dogs!)

Laughing. No chance I could have Kiki, Anneli amd Sawsan separately pounce on me re Duck identification. I spent an hour searching for duck ID on Birds Unlimited.

I add my vote to who ever said you should put a collection of your photography in a coffee table book. I want that coffee table book ill pay now.
Then a collection of coffee table books in a couple of years.

The title of your share and the photos remind me of this video…though in the video the photos are mostly of sunsets….”Time Passages” – Al Stewart

I also often have popular music come up for me (in all sorts of situations), and what came up here: Here comes the sun… Here comes the sun…and I say, it’s all right! Little darlin…it’s been a long cold lonely winter Little Darlin’…feels like years since it’s been here…Here Comes the Sun!!! I think that’s what all those little hooded Merganzers are singing (now I will always know what to call them–thanks!) And, “What a difference a Day makes…24 little hours…” Happy with the Beatles and Dinah Washington…and thanks for Al Stewart! And life at Cove Island! Oh, David, the places you take us…
